>>>>>>After three weeks her blood test indicated a drop in the hormone level
to normal.

An interesting story.  I have two concerns:
1. "RAW POTASSIUM BROTH" potassium can be troublesome if consumed in large
quanities.  It is closed involved in the electrical regulation of the heart
and excess can lead to troublesome/fatal heart arrythmias.
2.  HOW LONG WILL HER LEVEL STAY NORMAL?????  The thyroid level may be normal
now but I think that she needs to stay vigilent on the test results.  A
diabetic can watch their diet closely and get a good result on the blood
sugar, that doesn't mean that it is then OK forever and they don't have to
stay on the eating plan that lead them to the good result.
